The list members cannot actually unsubscribe you: I've bought your case
to the attention of postmaster@freebsd.org who will be able to act.
However, it seems that you probably have not been added to the list
using the obvious 'support@midphase.com' address -- hence you aren't
getting the unsubscribe messages.  In order to debug this, what would
almost certainly help is if you can send postmaster@f.o some sample
copies of or list e-mails as received by you including all of the
headers.  If the list-member address that results in messages into your
system can be identified, then it's simple to delete it.

It's quite likely that this is the result of some vandal who finds it
amusing to try and create mayhem by subscribing mailing lists to each
other and similar juvenile tricks.  It would only be justice to identify
the person concerned and bill them for the amount of time spent sorting
it out.

In the mean time, probably your best bet is to send any mailing list
traffic to /dev/null so it doesn't pollute your ticketing system.
That's pretty easy to do with eg. procmail(1) or any one of a dozen
other mechanisms.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
